Your first associations on Croatia

[vatroslav_cro]

What are the first things on your mind when you think of Croatia or when you imagine it? I would like to know it. I don't want to suggest anything, because I would be biased , but I am kindly asking you to be honest. You can mention everything you think, at least 3 or 4 associations, of course if you have more, you can say it all!

That would be great. I can already see commercial like this - "Come to Croatia, take a tour with Isabella" Hey, I could also be a tourist guide during summer

Hehe yes I would like to be a touristic guider too.. ...especially now when I am unemployed....but I have no idea how to start, I mean how to get the real informations about the education etc...I sent my CV to some agencies but...no response or the answers are uncleared :?

 

[Milos-BC]

Since it is a part of what I am actually studying, we can use a bit of marketing

The slogan could sound like this: "Hot, exotic, friendly.......you know you want it....Croatia"

In the background of the commercial, Isabella is sitting on the beach, smiling (WITH Alexu's glasses on in some segments ), and sending kisses to the viewers.

Isn't it a great, simple, but effective marketing strategy?
